• Zoo

  For a couple of weeks a rumor had been weaving through our family of going to the Zoo. Then very abruptly the rumor mill was closed down. It was absolutely not happening. Then all of a sudden this past Friday it was revived, but still I had no specifics as to anything really pertaining to…

• Big Events

  So the past week we have watched the Democrat Party implode. It has been intriguing to watch their comments and backtracking of comments. Talk about a turn-about of the major parties. That was how the Republicans were just a year ago now we are united behind Trump like never before. The Nato Press Briefing last…

• The “Save Act”

  The word Democracy is overused by the Democrats and the Liberal Left. The definition means a government that is run by the people. If you listen to these people the Libs and the Dems though, their policies do not reflect that definition of the word. For one they are not the majority and secondly if…

• My Thoughts This Very Sad Sunday

  This past week had been a good week. Monday and Tuesday we said our earthly goodbye to my Great-Great Uncle Dick who had already been reunited with loved ones and who finally got to meet Christ. It was sad only because we are left behind, he no longer deals with pain or tears. We even…

• A Rainy 4th of July

  Does this mean that God is crying over this Country today? A kaleidoscope of memories has run through my mind this morning. Different years fanning through my head of spending meals and afternoons at Grandma’s house and now we are on a new chapter in the Bishop Family. This will be our 2nd year of…

• Cemeteries… A Peaceful Solitude

  Heading back to the Cemetery this morning almost always feels good. It means exercise time and about half of the time we can say it is actually peaceful. I guess we have to have a reason to pay the mowers right! There are times they beat us and vice versa. Today once again they beat…

• Saying Goodbye For Now

  This morning I have to admit I was a bit irritated. I got up early and was ready to walk by 7 am. Mom had taken off with my brother to get milk so I got a little flustered by this when we have been trying to get up early to walk and today was…

• Forgetful

  This morning I plugged in my phone to get it a little more charged. It was just shy a few percentages of being completely full once more. I hate having it less than when I go to an appointment and don’t know how long I will be gone. So I didn’t predict this happening, but…

• Fiery, Passionate Love

  Last year I wrote out my feelings about my nieces birthday and motherhood or lack of experience being a mother. Becoming an Aunt was an experience though and I went through all of that in this article from a year ago. Today is slightly different. Have you noticed something about recent crimes lately. The victims…
